ASELSAN defense technology developments

Overview

ASELSAN has expanded its defense technology portfolio with new specialized systems for maritime and aerial security.

In August 2026, the company announced the development of the ASELBUOY P and ASELBUOY POD systems. These integrated tools are designed to enhance anti-submarine warfare capabilities for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The ASELBUOY P provides passive acoustic detection to identify underwater threats, while the ASELBUOY POD serves as a modular launcher system to deploy sonoboys from various aerial platforms.

By September 2026, ASELSAN introduced the DroneDef family, a suite of anti-drone (C-UAS) solutions. This system utilizes a layered defense architecture—incorporating surveillance, electronic warfare, and command and control—to protect critical infrastructure from unauthorized aerial activity, including threats posed by fiber-optic controlled drones.
